Description:“Alone, together.”The uncertainty, grief, fear, and isolation brought about by the COVID19 pandemic undoubtedly took a toll on everyone. Our most vulnerable youth were among those most socially, emotionally, and psychologically impacted.In October of 2021, top pediatric health institutions including the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, and the Children’s Hospital Association, jointly declared children’s mental health as a “national crisis”. The loss of critical years of authentic in-person and unmasked interactions, social skills training, and opportunities to foster healthy communication habits, has likely stunted, or led to a regression in, the social competencies of children diagnosed with mental health disorders.Now, more than ever, the inclusion and ongoing evaluation of targeted social skill training in treatment plans for children diagnosed with mental health disorders is of upmost importance. The ability to effectively communicate and to build health relationships is a leading indicator of happiness and overall wellness in children. A sense of belonging and connection can lead to increased confidence and success in other life facets.While social skills training may be embedded in general curriculums and treatment programs, children with mental health disorders oftentimes require adapted or additional training goals and methods. This need is typically driven by a combination of diagnostic symptoms and the unique developmental, cultural, behavioral, emotional social, genetic, and biological variables that shape each child.Mental Health From Diagnosis to Delivery is ideal for caretakers and treatment providers seeking information on the creation of targeted social skills goals, the implementation of tailored social skills training, and the evaluation of individualized plan effectiveness.
